Read moreFeatures of the Valve Manufacturing Process
Valves seem like fairly uncomplicated equipment in the machinery industry, right? They simply open and close to start and stop the flow of fluids and other mediums. They must be fairly easy to manufacture, right? When you take a closer look, you’ll find that every residential and industrial pipeline system would immediately fail without functioning […]
Read moreWhat Does the Operating Condition of Sanitary Valves Depend?
The working condition of the sanitary valve depends on many factors, including working pressure and working temperature of the medium, variation of pressure and temperature, driving mode, the installation position of the sanitary valve, service cycle, etc. Working pressure and temperature Generally speaking, the higher the pressure and temperature of the sanitary valve, the worse the […]

Mechanical damage: There will be scratches, bumps, crushes, and other damages during the opening and closing of the sealing surface. Between two sealing surfaces, under high temperature and high pressure, there will be mutual penetration of atoms, resulting in adhesion. When the two sealing surfaces move along each other, they’re prone to be torn apart […]
